LET'S STAYFOCUSED

We are open for new and well-established fintech and non-fintech startups with innovative ideas and solutions that address the needs of our customers or support the business model innovation of Daimler Financial Services.

Mobility Services

As a mobility service provider, we aim to fulfil our customers' mobility needs with innovative and individualised solutions that are fully aligned and integrated into our financial and insurance services – with this service package, we want to offer the best-possible customer experience.

Machine learning and automation based on artificial intelligence are important for a digital as well as personal customer experience and efficiency of all back-end processes at Daimler Financial Services. Furthermore with emotional intelligence, we want to ensure that our digital touchpoints stay human and that we treat our customers as individuals.

'Data is the new oil' proposes that, in the future, data will be the most valuable asset of a financial and mobility services company. Therefore we look for new data lake, analytics and prediction solutions which help us to know our customers in 360° view and make product suggestions before they know what they want.

Blockchain technology is versatile: it can cover currency use cases and tracks financial vehicle information, which includes new customer services in the fields of finance, mobility, energy, insurance, etc.

Peer-to-peer lending or crowdfunding are new financial models which benefit from digital solutions. We are interested in these new microcredits to extend our customer offers through innovative services.

Customers are using more and more digital and mobile products for making a purchase decision. Virtual reality and augmented reality enrich customer experience like never before. We are looking for new solutions that enable us to implement financial/mobility use cases within them.

For years, our Daimler brand has stood for trust and security. We aim to provide these values to our customers alongside our financial services. Data security is therefore important when offering digital financial solutions or providing safe access via authentication through face, voice or fingerprint recognition as well as through behaviour analysis etc.

New technology solutions simplify and streamline compliance and risk management, for example. They also reduce the cost of doing business in a highly regulated environment (such as governance, compliance, risk, data management).

We are looking for new solutions in the field of financial management platforms and advisories as well as aggregator platforms that help the customers to compare and find the best financial and leasing offers for our them.

We want to offer our customers one e-Wallet to pay for all mobility services: with innovative payment platforms and marketing solutions for mobile and in-store payments as well as integrated value-added services.

Insurance companies are offering their customers more and more mobile-based products. By using digital solutions as well as mobility data, we aim to provide a rich customer experience and flexible contracts as well.
